State holidays vs Central Government holidays

  • 1
    Different lists, different employers. A Central Government office in Patna follows the DoPT list, not the Bihar list. State secretariat staff in the same city follow the Bihar list.
  • 2
    Only three holidays are universal. Republic Day, Independence Day and Gandhi Jayanti are compulsory everywhere, for every employer.
  • 3
    Regional festivals drive the difference. Chhath in Bihar, Onam in Kerala, Bihu in Assam and Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra are major state holidays that do not appear on the Central list.
  • 4
    Banks follow a third list. Bank holidays are notified separately by the RBI under the Negotiable Instruments Act and do not always match either list.
